Steal a Labubu is a rising Roblox game where players collect plushie characters called Labubus. It combines light strategy with chaotic fun. You can either buy plushies to earn money passively or steal them from other players. The game mixes competition, teamwork, and upgrades in a fast-paced environment.
In this beginner-friendly guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know—how to earn money, get more Labubus, protect your base, and progress with rebirths.
How to Start in Steal a Labubu
When you first load into the game, you begin with $100 in your wallet. Your goal is to buy plushies (Labubus), place them in your base, and earn money over time. The faster you earn, the quicker you can buy stronger characters.
Step 1: Buy Your First Labubu
- Head to the center of the map.
- You’ll see a ramp full of Labubus.
- Walk up to one and press “E” on your keyboard to buy it.
- Once you purchase a Labubu, it will walk to your base and start generating income.
Some Labubus, like Lychee Berry, are free. Start with them if you don’t want to spend your starting cash. But remember—better Labubus earn more money per second. Try upgrading as soon as you can.
Labubu Rarities
Labubus are divided by rarity. The rarer they are, the more they earn. Here are the current rarity levels:
- Common
- Rare
- Epic
- Legendary
- Mythic
- Brainrot (most powerful)
Higher-tier plushies cost more but generate much higher income per second (M/S). Aim to upgrade from Common to Rare and beyond as you build your plushie empire.
Important: When You Own a Labubu
Buying a Labubu doesn’t mean you own it instantly. It becomes yours only after it enters your base’s “Collect Zone.” Until then, someone else can steal it—even while it’s walking toward your base.
That means speed matters. Grab, drop, and secure your plushies fast!
How to Steal Labubus From Other Players
One of the most exciting parts of the game is the ability to steal Labubus from other players. Here’s how:
- Enter another player’s base.
- Walk up to one of their plushies.
- Hold E to pick it up.
- Run back to your base and drop it into your Collect Zone.
That plushie now belongs to you and will start earning cash.
But here’s the catch—you can be attacked while stealing. If someone hits you, you’ll drop the plushie, and it returns to its owner. So plan your escape route and be quick!
Tools That Help (Or Hurt) in Stealing
The game has fun tools that make stealing or defending more interesting. You can get them from the Tool Shop. These include:
- Slap Hands – Smack thieves away from your base.
- Bee Gun – Slows down or interrupts enemy movement.
- Grappling Hook – Helps you escape quickly or reach high places.
The better the tool, the more helpful it is. You unlock more powerful tools by doing Rebirths (explained later).
Use tools wisely. Sometimes, a single slap can save your best Labubu.
How to Protect Your Labubus From Thieves
Just like you can steal, others can steal from your base. Here’s how you can defend yourself:
1. Use the “Lock Base” Feature
One of the best defenses is the Lock Base button. When activated:
- A barrier forms around your base.
- Only you can enter and exit.
- Other players are blocked.
The Lock Base has a timer. Once the timer ends, your base is open again. Locking your base gives you time to organize, collect plushies, or build up money safely.
There are free and Robux-based Lock Base options. The Robux ones last longer and offer better protection.
2. Team Up With Friends
Ask friends to guard your base while your Lock Base timer is off. Friends can:
- Use tools to stop thieves.
- Help you chase away enemies.
- Alert you if someone is entering your base.
Teamwork in this game can give you a huge advantage.
3. Be Alert
Once your Lock Base timer ends, be ready. Thieves often wait nearby for it to expire. Defend your plushies and keep your best Labubus safe!
Rebirth: What It Is and Why It Matters
When you’ve earned a lot of money and collected high-tier plushies, it’s time to Rebirth.
What Is Rebirth?
Rebirth is a game reset. When you Rebirth:
- You lose your cash.
- You lose your plushies.
- Your base returns to its starting state.
BUT you unlock amazing benefits, including:
- Better tools
- Longer Lock Base timers
- More income potential
You’ll also unlock new plushies, such as Panda Chef and others that are only available after Rebirth.
Rebirth isn’t required, but it helps you advance faster in future runs. Most pro players use it as a key growth strategy.
How to Collect Money From Labubus
Every plushie in your base earns money per second (M/S). But to collect that cash:
- Stand on the plushie’s platform.
- The money will transfer into your account.
- Repeat this process across all plushies.
Some Labubus generate more than $10 million per second once upgraded. That’s why expanding your collection is key.
Where to Find the Lock Base Button
The Lock Base button is easy to miss for new players.
- Go to the very end of your base.
- Look for a sign or button labeled “Lock Base.”
- Press it to activate the shield.
You’ll see a timer counting down. Once it ends, the shield disappears. Use your tools or friends to protect your base after that.
